SONG - TALKING TO YOURSELF
PRESENTED BY PAULINE FREEMAN
Practically all hailing from Limerick - save one token Galwegian
- The Brad Pitt Light Orchestra's music is a blend of warm vocal
harmonies, classy instrumentation and ear-catching melodies that is
desperately hard to categorise yet strangely easy to love.
Originally
a group of college friends who parted ways due to emigration and the
like, the band reformed when two members - Ann and David Blake featured
on Ray D'Arcy's album "Even Better Than The Real Thing Volume 2" with a
haunting version of Hole in The Head by the Sugababes.
They have
since produced two successful EPs, 'Fireside Chat' and 'Small
Contradictions' and have enjoyed radio airplay from Ryan Tubridy on
Radio 1, Ray D'Arcy, Tom Dunne, Alison Curtis, Paul McLoone and Dave
Couse on Today FM, The Blue of the Night on Lyric FM and Hot Press
journalist's Alan Jacques's show Green and Live on Limerick's Live 95FM.
In
2008 they played at the Electric Picnic, The Flatlake Festival, and The
Green Gathering. Their December 2008 release, "December", was played
heavily on Today FM and was no. 35 in The Paul McLoone Show's end of
year list.
Expansive instrumentation coupled with a dark, wry
wit The (very well dressed) Brad Pitt Light Orchestra produce an
unmissable vibrant, life-affirming, live experience
